By Reacting, You Strengthen Your Ego

Galactic Free Press's picture

How often in life we react to our circumstances? Almost always. It comes to us naturally though, or better put we do it unconsciously and that is why it might feel like second nature. We feel like we have answer to everything, we like to argue and complain, we think we know what is right for everybody, we love to point fingers at somebody who is doing something we don’t like and love to put ourselves on pedestal if we did something nice. What’s wrong with that, you might question. Well, just hang in there and I will tell you my theory about that, and then it’s up to you to take it into consideration or leave it, like nothing ever happened.

When you react to what happens around you, it’s actually not you reacting but your Ego. Your Ego has formed from your past events, and has a set way of seeing life. It is a part of you, that loves conflicts, problems, it feeds on them. Many people know it as” that little voice inside your head”. That little voice that tells you, You are not worthy; You can’t do this, What people will think? You don’t have any talent. Nobody loves you. You can never finish anything you start, and so it goes on ranting in your head, seriously polluting your precious soul. When you start believing your Ego and reacting in accordance to what it says, you give it power. You strengthen it. And then it really starts seeming that it is you saying all that stuff. It becomes difficult to see the separation.
